KING'S BROADCAST.
All the World Will Hear Speech At Economic Parley. ORGANISATION OUTLINED. (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, May 19. When the King opens the World Economic Conference on June 12 it will be possible for his voice to be heard all round the world. The General Post Office, by wireless telephone and telegraph, is arranging the biggest linking-up that has ever been attempted. Foreign countries are being invited to take part in the scheme which is being drawn up with the new international telephony headquarters at Faraday House and the great wireless station at Rugby as the main points. From Faraday House all the capitals of Europe can be brought in, while via Rugby the King's message will be carried to Sydney, Montreal, New York, Capetown, Bombay and Cairo. The administrations not only throughout the Empire, but in most foreign countries, will receive His Majesty's speech and rebroadcast it to their nationals.
